Hell.
I'll do that anyway.
On a serious note, I'm disappointed that someone who typically pays attention to the details is so willing to ignore the facts simply because...
well..
Trump.
He won, ya know.
But keep up the good work and Hillary might include you in her next book.
Point out a single fact I'm ignoring tail. Your desire to defend the idiot is insane.
No one at all has said that he has shot anyone on 5th ave...
What he is being accused of: Trump is being accused of stating that he could shoot someone on 5th ave and not lose any voters.... that's all he's being accused of. Essentially the accusation is that he said his voters don't care about whether he's a criminal or a disgusting human being, they will vote for him.
What he actually said:
"'...And trump returns the respect by recognizing regular hard working americans are a lot smarter than any of the ideological eunuchs in all of their pontificating glory.' It's true... the people... my people are so smart. and you know what else they say about my people? The polls, they say I have the most loyal people. Did you ever see that? Where I could stand in the middle of 5th avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose any voters. Ok? It's like incredible. No, they say... we love you too man... the say Trumps voters by far... you know I'm at 68, 69 percent. I'm at 90% total. Like 'will you say absolutely' I think it's like 68 or 69 percent. 'Will you most likely stay' I think that gets into the 90s and the other guys are at like 10 a guy like Jeb Bush he's a nobody..."
Read that carefully tail. He's quoting an article at the beginning. (I added ' ' marks to delineate) Then he stops. He starts referencing the polls. The polls say his voters are loyal. The polls do NOT say he can shoot someone on 5th ave. He is stating, that the polls say his fans are so loyal, and exaggerates to state he could shoot someone on 5th ave and not lose any votes.
If the weather station said it was the hottest day on record today, and I then turned around and said "They say it's so hot I could boil water on the sidewalk"... are you gonna say I'm just quoting someone? No. Because I'm not trump and you're not that excited to try to defend my every word.
What's funny is it doesn't even matter that he said it. There is literally nothing wrong with him being accused of saying he has very loyal voters. It isn't his fault that his voters are that dumb. It's outrageous he said it, and openly acknowledged that his voters don't care what he did. But it's true... probably the only true thing he has said. I mean, the guy literally stated that he enjoys sexual assault and they voted for him. No one actually thinks they'll blink at him murdering someone.
But here's tail... triyng to defend him... for what? To say he doesn't believe his voters are that loyal? Because that's already been proven wrong multiple times. Choose your battles better tail. He said this. It doesn't even matter that he did.
